Re: Tizen Source and SDK Preview are here
Tizen was never not using DEB. It's, thus far, directly descended from SLP which was always DEB. Whether the packaging format will change is unknown.
That's because Android doesn't actually do...

Re: Cordia : Maemo5 UI on top MeeGo Core
It goes beyond merely blocking sideloading.
I had one reserved (but put down no money) and ignored the calls to come in and pick it up once the investigations at xda-devs showed that the unit was...

Re: IOS vs. Android all looking at Meego
It depends on what you're after. Certainly, I'm here because of the N900 and what it brought to the table in terms of giving me control, and with Mer/Nemo, it's closer to perfect than anything else....

Re: Cordia : Maemo5 UI on top MeeGo Core
Was there ever clarification about what wasn't open? At least the wifi is a rather boring TI device with drivers already in the kernel... only the graphics are closed as far as I can see.

Re: Tizen?
Every solution I've seen people propose so far is basically Apple's .app style, which leaves you with multiple duplicate copies of libraries and wasted memory due to non-shared libraries. You can...

Re: Windows 8 & WinPhone - how to counterstrike?
Microsoft neglected CLI tools for ages, but on the NT kernel they at least had a minimal POSIX environment. Considering Windows, the move to the NT kernel was probably one of the better jumps they...

Re: Windows 8 & WinPhone - how to counterstrike?
Linux will not counter. The question is if someone is willing to use Linux to counter. Microsoft is betting everything on this and banking on their desktop monopoly and name recognition to push them...

Re: Geeksphone Zero
Complain all you want, but a device developed in this manner would be WAY more likely to see a non-Android platform come to it than any phone released by a major vendor.

Re: The Epic Android Thread
Pretty much. Once Upon A Time it was a good magazine, but it's just an ad-filled pit these days.
I am more bothered by Florian getting press though.

Re: The Epic Android Thread
ZDnet's over the top interpretation of the Powerpoint slide is quite amusing, and Florian's bloviating about bullet point 2 is just stupid. It reveals nothing we haven't known for ages.
It is...

Re: Where are all the MeeGo tablets?
Sure. Smoku's primary development work for the UI has been done on top of either fedora or opensuse (not sure which.)
And yes they are missing solutions for the mobile UI.
I like to think of...

Re: Where are all the MeeGo tablets?
Focus. Ubuntu has no good touch UI, nor does any of the software that it comes with by default have decent touch interfaces.
MeeGo is heavily focused around touch as a means of interacting with...

Re: Where are all the MeeGo tablets?
MeeGo and Android could certainly be that. The problem is the attitude of the hardware manufacturers, regardless of the platform they use.
And as it stands, if you try to force the issue with the...

Re: The End is Coming: What do we do next?
Nokia never tried to close Qt, doing so would be futile due to the agreement established before they ever bought Trolltech. It has been opened even more though, which is always good.

Think of it this way:
You may not care about carrying around a tablet, but if you like the project enough to want to support it then maybe you might make an exception. After all, the hardware will...
